BLUE SAPPHIRE

When it comes to precious gemstones, blue sapphire have long been sought after, as they carry significant meaning. These stones have been associated with royalty for several centuries already.

The sapphire blue colour is also looked to as a symbol of energy and healing in many circles. They are a gem representing order, likely owing to their ties to royal families across the world and throughout history.

These beloved gemstones have long been a representation of mental focus, inner vision and psychic awareness. Chakra theory dictates that sapphires have healing properties and help open the third eye to deepen insight. They also open the throat chakra, which allows for much easier communication with others and helps avoid miscommunication and unresolved conflict.

The deep sapphire blue colour is also thought to be celestial and to bring about a connection to prophecy and Divine favour. The jewel is steeped in religious history and folklore all across the world. Blue sapphires signified the height of celestial faith and hope in the ancient and medieval worlds. They were also believed to have properties of protection, bringing spiritual insight, and good fortune.

These precious stones remain a strong symbol of strength, power, kindness and good judgement in this day and age.
